34 DCC freshmen awarded Conklin Scholarships

Thirty-four Dutchess Community College freshmen were formally awarded the 2012 Charles E. and Mabel E. Conklin Scholarship for Academic Excellence recently, joining family members for a luncheon on campus. When combined with the Conklin scholars who began at DCC last fall, approximately 75 students are benefiting from the initiative.

The Conklin Scholarship provides two years of full tuition for any Dutchess County high school student who graduates in the top 10 percent of his or her class.
